About Us!

flower arrangements daisies I’m a 30ish mom of 3 boys ages 9, 5, and 1 as well as the partner to an amazing man for over 14 years. This blog will be about them, as well as the trials….um I mean wonders of raising 3 boys, homeschooling (yup, we’re homeschoolers too!), crafts, recipes, my attempts to live gently on this Planet….and whatever else seems interesting or relevant at the time.

Hope you enjoy ~ Kara

And just so you can follow along more easily – Mr T = my hubby, I is our 9 yo son, K is our 6 yo and O is our baby
